Idea: API to spawn Background Agents

After thinking about Background Agents on Github Issues - #2 by T1000 I come to realize that the simplest/easiest solution would be for Cursor to release its Background Agents as APIs inside Cursor MCP.

People could authenticate with their account and ask to spawn a Background for some repo and a text prompt.

Hi @lucis and thank you for the feature request. It is a common request by Cursor users in the Forum and Cursor Team is aware of the requests. :slight_smile: For now no new info is available but I agree on the feature being a good idea.

I will merge your thread with others on same topic.
